Originally I set out to make the letters spelling "dotartdude" into a graffiti image. Along the way I broke up the letters into a grid; plus I added some large dots.

Waiting Filled In
Here's another drawing I started while waiting in line to see a film. This time I filled in the shapes I drew.

Waiting
During the New Orleans Film Festival I doodled while waiting in line.

Fantasy Grid
It’s hard to believe I started this sketch back in October during the New Orleans Film Festival. The drawing gave me something to work on while waiting for the next film to begin. Like similar grids, before this one, I kept the direction open-ended. I wasn’t worried about keeping shapes a certain way or having a specific formula for the whole image. My goal this year will be to create a finished color pencil piece in the spirit of these intuitive grids.

Copeland's
This drawing took a while to complete. I began it when I went to a Copeland's Restaurant. You will notice the similarity of this one to Fox and Hound Shaded. In this one I wanted the effect of a map. I've been on a tangent with map-like drawings.

Just Add Circles
The title “Just Add Circles” is my reaction to a recent online design trend that includes groupings of concentric circles as a pattern. Anyway, I played with circles inside circles, but I made it my own. Also, I drew vertical lines to break up my shapes as a positive/negative space game – if you will. I rendered the piece with graphite on Reeves BFK paper. It is a rag paper that can take a lot of abuse.

Crop Addiction
A few months ago a friend on Facebook invited me to try a game called Farm Town. In short order I was addicted to the game. Since then, I also became hooked on a very similar game, FarmVille. Anyway, here is my gouache abstract painting celebrating both games. I can’t escape grids.
